Stone’s Throw Rabbitry

Good night under the “stars” at what is always my favorite show, Northern Kentucky Rabbit Breeders Association’s Starry Night show!

Show A Kattie Reilly-Oschip:

BOG Self - Maple Ridge Riot (Black)
BOG Agouti - Stone’s Throw OverDrive (Amber out of retirement for the Grumpy Old Man fun show!)
⭐️ BOB - 3C Ruby (Otter) ⭐️

Show B Kristi Adelke:

⭐️ BOS - Maple Ridge Riot (Black) ⭐️
BOG Agouti - Stone’s Throw OverDrive (Amber)
⭐️ BOB - 3C Ruby (Otter) ⭐️

Had to go take some pictures outside to determine that Gertie’s litter does, in fact, have two “surprise” otters 🤣 So, I still have yet to produce a single amber doe, as DropShot’s ambers are definitely both bucks!

Baby Announcements 🎉

The rabbitry is in a mini baby boom this week, courtesy of Maple Ridge Riot (RIS winning self black carrying chocolate, dilute, and tort)! Four litters on the ground with two additional positive palpations/nesting behavior.

Riot x Stone’s Throw Gertrude (multiple BOB winning Opal, no idea how many legs)
Two Opals
One !!!Amber or Lynx!!!
Gertie has been the show string star since the fall, so excited about her brood career! She’s an extremely color correct Opal with the fur and body to match.

Riot x MBR DropShot (Castor)
One Castor
Two !!!!Ambers!!!!
Thrilled to have another litter out of my foundation doe! She’s the dam, second, or third dam of more than half of the barn, and due to the move and life circumstances, hasn’t been bred in a year. She took on one fall off ♥️♥️ DropShot is the mother of my most successful show rabbit ever, Stone’s Throw CatNap, and my many legged Amber herd buck, Stone’s Throw OverDrive.

Riot x RECS Watermelon Moonshine (Castor, 7 BOB GC legs)
One Castor (fostered to Kinky Boots)
Unfortunately Moon kindled three peanuts along with this little Castor, but this appears to be a doe! Moon had a very long and accomplished show career, but I have yet to retain a daughter of hers as they have all been brokens. This appears to be a doe, so hopefully it’s the one! Excitingly, it turns out that Moon is a confirmed dilute - two of her peanuts were Opals!

Riot x Stone’s Throw Kinky Boots (Black Otter)
Two Black
One Blue
Kinky had a very limited and late show career due to a nestbox ear injury, but she has the best type in the entire barn. Such a beautiful, short doe with an uber correct high point.

Really fun and slightly surprising showing with the does in Georgetown today!

Didn't get to attend due to my foaling schedule, but Dennison Farm was able to bring some bunnies to the Northern Kentucky Rabbit Breeders Association Spring Fling for me today! Including our new co-owned buck, Maple Ridge Riot, and my new doe, 3C Ruby. Only sent four and very pleased with how they did!!

It's been a very slow year with the herd due to work and farm construction things, so these two new rabbits were brought in to help bridge the generational gap!
